To the Deer Park Band OF Hope. Written ny
Col. T.. G. Tilison. Delivered by haste
Frank SchOolheld.
When Autumn's sere and yellow leaves
Are strewn all DER the ground,
Aud little brooks and gurgling rilts
In icy letters bound;
When Winters SHOWS spread far and wide
Ger the once verdant plain.
Aud change is written on the face
or Natures vast domain.
We hail these changes that appear
With hearts brmiul OF glee,
AS ushers to our holidays
That pass so merrily.
And now kind friends. once more we come
To make our New Years bow,
And ask our kind indulgence ON
What we shall say or do.
We come not as theatricals,
In grOtesque form and nneln
Nor TO excite sour risibles
By acting clap-trap scenes;
No. we adopt this method,
TO show unto the world,
That in the cause of Temerance
Our banner is uniurled.
And since the last years greeting.
We've stood up for the right,
And for our Local Option
Have nobly won the fight.
That we've had pleasant meetings
I'm sure you'll all agree,
And entertained the audience
AS Ear as we can see.
Our members have been punctual
With thouphts Of GOOD intent
And rarely at a meeting, have
We missed our President.
Our officers we have to thank
For their solicitude,
And all their works Of love and faith
Intended for our good.
Aud last, not least, our thanks to those,
Who. on the programme, prove
Their patient and untlring toll
In this grand work of love.
We've had our share of changes too,
But that's no cause for sorrow,
The children of to- day, will be
The parents of tomorrow.
But whate'er change the future bright,
Or with what doubts we cope.
We. one and all. most surely will
Mainilin the Band Of Hope;
For fear I Ihall your patience tire,
will resume my seat,
Knowing that you anticipate
Enjoying rich treat.
Perhaps I've spoken quite too long,
But less could not say,
So now RI just step out again,
For Others, to make way.

LEFT HURRIEDLY.

A decided sensation was caused last even
ing in the neighborhood of the Lincoln street
school building by young man making a
hasty exit from the porch of a certain house
and taking flying leap over the front fence,
disappearing rapidly in the direction OF
Main street minus his hat From neighbor-
hood remarks it appears the young man is a
clerk in store, and has been rather devoted
to the young lady of the house, whose par
ents are quite well off in this worlds goods,
and who have decided objections to their
daughter receiving the attentions of the
,, aforesaid young man. having repeatedly for
bid his visiting the house.
Last evening the old folks attended the
theatre leaving the daughter at home with a
young lady friend. The young man found
this out and at once called, thinking to leave
before their return. Possibly owing to the
effects of the full moon the time flew by more
rapidly than expected, and the first thing he
ives aware of was the return of the stearn
parents by the rear entrance, and bassc
profoundo voice calling out, daughter who
is that sitting on the porch with you" This
causing his rapid exit without giving the old
man the desired information.

A CARD.

ENQUIRIES from abroad and also from citl
zens of Wichita, indicate considerable doubt
to the opening of the Garfield University or
the 9th of next September. This doubt Ii
often coupled with the belief that Wichita
has suffered terrible collapse in trade and
growth.
All doubts in reference to the University
will be unavailing; for, Dec Volente, it will
open at the time appointed. 1t was never IL
more prosperous condition. The faculty
has been chosen and will be on the ground
our business interests and pledges require it.
One wing of the building % rooms) will be

A KNOCK OUT.

Last night about 1890 Gene Clarke
heard racket at the Germania House on
West Douglas avenue, cheap hotel kept by
John Nau. He arrived just in time to effect
the arrest of John Jerrichs burly young
fellow about twenty eight years old, who had
kicked another party and doubled him up on
the floor, in row, with a woman at the bot
tom of it. The party injured is the man,
whose wife short time since committed
suicide and is considered by the police as
not much good. Jerrichs is the same fello"
who was some time ago accused by the vic
tim of having knocked an old man down the
stairway at the same house, from the effects
of which the old man died shortly after ac-
cusing Jerrichs.
When officer Clarke went to make the ar
rest his prisoner began to show fight, but
was offered such superior inducements to go
to the lookup that he was taken to the city
building without any further trouble. The
man who was ''done up" is pretty badly
hurt.

A PLEASANT SOCIAL AFFAIR

The Lawn Fete" held last evening at tie
residence of Mrs McCalla ON North Topeka
avenue by the ladies of the Guild of st.
Johns church. was an entire success, nearly
two hundred guests being present during the
evening. The large lawn was beautifully
decorated with colored lanterns. Numerous
small tables were placed at the south end of
the lawn. where choice ice cream, cake and
lemonade were served by the ladies to those
desiring it. In the front of the lawn large
platform was erected for dancing, Shaw's
excellent orchestra furnishing the music.
Among the numerous guests present were
the Right Rev. Bishop Thomas. of this do
ces, who arrived last evening from Topeka,
and Rev. Chas. j. Adams, of St Johns
church. A handsome amount of money wa:
realized, and the ladies in charge certainly
deserve much credit for their untiring and
successful efforts at making all present thor

WESTERN KANSAS.

| Last evening an EAGLE reporter met Mr.
William Barnard, general manager of the
Dighton Town company, at Dighton, Lane
county, Kansas, who had just arrived in the
city from that section, at The Occidental ho
tel
In answer to the reporters enquiries Mr..
Barnard stated that western Kansas was in a
most flourishing condition, and the settlers
all in comfortable circumstances. Emigra-
ton, he stated, was pushing in rapidly, and
that it was all of the better class.
What about the land office removal, Mr..
Barnard!
Well, answered Mr.. Barnard, the removal
of the Wakeeney district land office has be-
come settlers necessity. The entire dis
trict is thoroughly aroused and to man
they have signed petitions asking for its re-
moval to a more central position. Indeed,
the excit ement over this matter is greater
than.was the arrival of the first railroads. As
it has become known that a removal is all
that will satisfy the residents of the district,
, | feel sure tie government will act for the
best interests of all.
Mr. Barnard also stated that Scott City
had sent delegation to Washington, D. G.
to confer with the commissioner. That the
people of the district now think that the new
location will lay between Scott City and
Dighton. The former has at this time two
lines of railroads, while Dighton is located in
the center of the district, on the line of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad west
from Great Bend Certainly, as Mr.. B. re-
marked, it is most deairable location, and
one which in the opinion of majority OF
the settlers, will give the utmost satisfaction
should the land office be located there.
1t is, remarked Mr.. Barnard, impossible to
describe the dissatisfaction that has been felt
and expressed by the settlers at being COM
PEELED to go such distance to reach the
Office. As far as the Lane county people are
concerned, they will be satisfied if it is 10
Gated so as the entire district would be
accommodated. Wakeeney is at the extreme
northeast corner of the district on the Kan
sas Pacific railroad, while large percentage
of the land in that neighborhood is railroad
land, not on the market.
Well, see Wichita is still booming, with
many splendid business blocks going up.
have been watching tie growth of the city
closely through the columns Of the EAGLD
as every one in Dighton takes the EAGLE.
| We now receive it the same day as published
and all of Lane county look with pride on
| the DEVELOPMENT of Wichita.

WHAT HE THOUGHT.

Mr. G. p Gaylord, of near Cincinnati,
O., was in the city yesterday. Mr.. Gaylord
is capitalist who has been travelling during
the summer quite extensively in the west
looking at the live enterprising cities. He
was seen last evening after having been
driven over the city and when asked his i'm
preston said: "Wichita is wonderfully place
of a most phenomenal growth / could
scarcely believe that the city had grown up
SO rapidly and yet so substantially. 1t ap-
pears, too, that there is no let up to the build
ing and improvement. On all hands and
everywhere | looked there were new roofs,
new houses, new business blocks. The build
ings, too, are not insignificant, but
in many cases grand, and show all
the latest and most beautiful styles of
/ architecture I was just glancing over a
table showing the increase in population and
find in comparing it with similar table of
Kansas City that Wichita gained in five
years what it took Kansas City when OF a
corresponding size ten years to gain. If this
influx of population should continue, and |
can. see no possible..reason why it should not,
Wichita will soon eclipse its Missouri river
rival. | must confess that an very much
surprised at what have seen, for through
many of the eastern papers l was lead to be
lieve that Wichita was busted l think |
call to mind many cities that would like to
busted after the same order"

JUDGE WALL AT KINGMAN.

Speaking of Judge Wallis fourth of July
Grafton at Kingman, the News says:
Judge Wall was then introduced and de
livered an Grafton full OF bright thoughts
being ''scmething new under the sum-" His
perorations wound up in the following beau
tiful language:
eff the dreams a nation dreams comes
true" let us indulge in national dream
that the time may speedily come when dema
when law and its administration will in truth
be equity and right; when there will be nc
conflict between capital and labor; when cor
porate power will not Cypress; thu. the pro
ducts and wealth of the nation win be so dis
tributed that all will have plenty; when, in
short, all the functions of government will be
SO exercised that the objects of government
will be attained-the perfection Of social
system in which want, misery, oppression
ignorance and crime will be unknown.
A patriotic citizenship will endeavor to
make the dream realization"

BASE BALL.
The Champions at Fort Smith Today and
TOMORROW.

HThe Wichita's under Manager Mold left
last night for Fort Smith, Arkansas, where
they play the Indians of that city two games,
one today and another tomorrow. The fol-
lowing members of the team went down.
Baldwin, Leighton, Hendricks, Schneider,
Whistler, Glenalvin, Wilson, Scherring-
hansen, Haber and Hemp Hendricks and
Schneider will be the battery in today's
game, and Baldwin and Leighton on Satur-
to save expenses and to be fresh for the
championship game at Arkansas City on
Monday The Indians are determined to re-
deem themselves from the criti-
cism heaped upon them after their
experience here when they got SO neatly
dounup The games will be very hotly
| contested and the result will be posted On
the bulletin board in front Of the Western
Union Office as soon as received.
| The management is now after still another
pitcher one who is making superb record
against good clubs and is pronounced
wonder. Wichita is ahead and is bound to
stay there The record made by the club is
one OF Wnlcn the clllZeUS kldy justly Ieei
proud. They are in the lead in the State
League with twenty-four games played,
| fifteen won and nine lost, making their per
cent CPS. which per cent. is only exceeded
| by the St. Louis Browns and tie Detroits
and the Baltimores Wellington's per cent.
I! is but $50. Besides this good showing in
their own League, they have beaten the
| champions of the Southwestern League, the
Fort Smith Indians, in two out of three
games, and also the second best club in the
same league, the Springfelds, in the same
| proportion. Their two games with the cham
pions of the Western Lesgue-the Topekas-
are a stand off-one and one. The club Is
not being as well paUronized as it should. No
more games will be played here for full
week.
The executive committee Of the Western
| League met at Lincoln, Nebraska, last night
| to consider Leavenworth'S going out of that
league. Should they conclude to ask Wichita
into the place made vacant by Leavenwcrth's
| throwing up the sponge, the stockholders
and citizens generally should do all in their
power to properly start Wichita in the race
with such cities as Kansas City, Omaha and
Denver, and would put her in larger class

the hauling away of debris of all kinds at a

more likely to keep the alleys free from ma
